A new Elizabeth Strout is always a cause for celebration and Tell Me Everything is no exception to that rule. It brings all of her characters together, in the town of Crosby, and examines the details of their lives (& many others) in minute detail. The legend that is Olive Kitteridge finally meets up with Lucy Barton, but this story isn’t so much about them. The wonderful Bob Burgess is front & centre, and what a character he is! Gentle & kind, Bob keeps trying his best, even when he doesn’t know what that means.
I fully expected to love this book & I really did. I feel like Bob, Lucy, Olive, Jim & their friends & families will stay with me for a while now. I’m tempted to reread the whole back catalogue so I don’t have to leave them just yet. Many thanks to NetGalley & Viking for an early copy.

A really heartwarming book. This is the first I’ve read and now I’m cursing myself for not reading them in order!! I didn’t anticipate that I’d want to read the others but now I do!
